The Heart of Louisiana
![natchez mississippi riverboat red paddle wheel of steamboat natchez](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_PaddlleWheel_07_Feature_1700x1130-1700x660.jpg)
Steamboat Natchez
The hot steam warms up the brass whistles of the Calliope on the Steamboat Natchez on a chilly winter morning, signaling the start of a journey steeped in history and tradition. This iconic steamboat is a symbol of New Orleans’ rich maritime heritage.
![natchez mississippi riverboat woman with gray hear and blue coat plays a calliope atop the steamboat Natchez on the New Orleans riverfront](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_Calliope_Player_01_1000x750.jpg)
the calliope calls the curious to the riverfront
The old-time melodies of the calliope greet passengers boarding the Steamboat Natchez for a midday cruise. Played by Debbie Fagnano for over three decades, her rendition of “Blue Skies” serves as a unique weather report. The music echoes throughout the French Quarter and draws people to the riverboat dock.
![natchez mississippi riverboat steamboat Natchez on river in New Orleans blowing steam whistle](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_River_Whistle_PilotHouse_4K_1000x750.jpg)
crew and passengers step back in time
Steve Nicoulin is the captain of the Natchez. He replaced his father, who has worked on the steamboat since it arrived in New Orleans in 1975. Nicoulin Senior still takes the controls on some river cruises. The tug of a brass ring in the pilot house shoots steam through the boat’s loud whistle. The brass ring is the oldest thing on the boat, Nicoulin tells me, explaining, “This ring actually came off an old steamer back in 1889.”
![natchez mississippi riverboat man in black captain hat pulls on brass ring in boat pilot house](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_River_Ring_4K_1000x750.jpg)
pieces from the past
The Natchez, nearing its 50th anniversary, is powered by steam engines from a 1925 vessel, the Clairton. Twin diesel-fired boilers generate the 200 pounds of steam that drive the boat’s antique piston engines and large paddle wheel. A World War II era communication system, salvaged from a Navy destroyer, connects the captain to the engine room.
![natchez mississippi riverboat brass telegraph system for boat communication](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_Telegraph_EngineRoom_08_1000x750.jpg)

steamboat natchez survives fire during renovations
The steamer has an “old school feel”, Nicoulin says, noting how rare the vessels are now. “When I started with the company, there were six remaining steamboats,” he explains. “Now there are only two left on the whole Mississippi River.” The Natchez resumed taking tourists on daily trips up and down the Mississippi River after a three year absence. A fire broke out in the steamboat’s generator room while the vessel was undergoing renovations.
![natchez mississippi riverboat boarge and tow passing steamboat during Mississippi River cruise](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_Passing_Barge_Tow-09_1000x750.jpg)
A slower pace on the steamboat natchez
Matt Dow, the Director of Marine Operations for the New Orleans Steamboat Company , says it was important to get the Natchez back in service. He describes it as an icon of New Orleans. When I asked Dow what makes the river cruises so enjoyable, he quotes Mark Twain. “Twain said it best,” Dow says. “Someday man will figure out how to go 700 miles per hour. But we’ll still only want to go seven.”
![natchez mississippi riverboat large freighter passing paddle wheel of steamboat Natchez](https://heartoflouisiana.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Natchez_River_Freighter_13_1000x750.jpg)
The Natchez takes passengers on several daily cruises that depart from the New Orleans riverfront near Jackson Square. The paddle wheeler first travels several miles downstream, passing the Chalmette Battlefield where Andrew Jackson fought the Battle of New Orleans. Then the steamboat heads back upstream, passing by the French Quarter and St. Louis Cathedral. The Natchez turns around at the Mississippi River Bridge and returns to the dock. The cruise is a relaxing ride that begins with the calliope and a jazz band, that preserves bits of river history and tradition on the Mississippi River.

Top Attractions in Natchez for Mississippi River Cruisers Part 1
![natchez mississippi riverboat The Towers in Natchez, MS. Photo by Susan J. Young.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/towers-cropped72-905x489.jpg)
Fast forward from the 1800s to 2022. Arriving at Natchez, MS , by riverboat, cruisers see much of the same Mississippi River scenery that Mark Twain did from a 19th century steamboat. But what are the top attractions?
What should travelers see and do ashore? Here’s Part One of our two-part series about what to see and do in Natchez.
Exploring by Riverboat
First, a bit about “getting there.” Natchez is a popular port of call for Lower Mississippi river cruises. Many voyages sail roundtrip from New Orleans or between New Orleans and Memphis, TN .
In addition, for consumers seeking the “full shebang” on the Mississippi River, some voyages sail more than 1,100 miles between New Orleans, LA, and St. Paul, MN .
![natchez mississippi riverboat American Queen Voyages' American Duchess, one of the line's vessels. Photo by Susan J. Young](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/20211223_132357-75072.jpg)
Two veteran Mississippi River “sailors” are American Cruise Lines (ACL) and American Queen Voyages (AQV). New in June 2022, Viking River Cruises will start sailing the Missisippi River as well.
Tour operators also offer guests options on some of those cruises. For example, Tauck offers an 11-day “Life on the Mississippi” vacation on AQV’s American Duchess .
For the full range of voyage options (including sailing dates, itineraries, pricing, accommodations and add-ons), contact your travel advisor or read the Important Note from Pavlus Travel at the end of this story.
Our focus instead with this blog is “the destination.” We hope to offer helpful tidbits and suggestions for shoreside fun.
So, here’s Part One of our two-part blog series about “Top Natchez Attractions for River Cruisers.” Check back next week for Part Two.
1. Top Attractions: Natchez Under the Hill
Most river cruise vessels arrive at Natchez Under the Hill, nestled below soaring riverside bluffs. The city itself is atop the bluffs.
In the 19th century and early 20th centuries, this area was — to put it bluntly — a seedy area that bustled with gambling, drinking and brothels.
Today, it’s a relatively quiet, lovely spot for a riverside stroll. Plus, you’ll also find a few places to dine, enjoy a brew or shop.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Natchez Under the Hill, once a seedy enclave of vice, is now a great spot for a stroll. A few retail establishments welcome cruise guests. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.,](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/NatchezUnderHill72.jpg)
To reach Natchez’s downtown, there are two options. Active travelers might enjoy hiking up the hill and walking into the city.
Most travelers, though, will opt to board the cruise lines’ “on-off” or shore excursion motorcoaches. That makes for an easier journey to the top and beyond. Shuttles and taxis can be arranged too.
2. Top Attractions: Grand Village of the Natchez Indians
Natchez’s historical and cultural influences are eclectic. Long before French explorers arrived, indigenous Natchez Indians lived in the Natchez area.
Not far from downtown Natchez is the 128-acre Grand Village of the Natchez Indians. If you go, you’ll see three prehistoric native American mounds and a museum.
Separately, the area’s Natchez Trace Federal Parkway is now a scenic highway under the auspices of the U.S. National Park Service. This trace (or trail) was a footpath originally used by the Natchez Indians and other native American tribes.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Natchez Trace Parkway. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/NachezTrace72.jpg)
Centuries ago, trappers/fur traders also used the trace to bring goods to/from Mississippi River vessels. Today, the parkway is a lovely drive with pretty eco-scenery ( see photo above ). Hiking trails and a designated biking trail also await.
Viking Shore Excursion
When it begins cruising in June , Viking River Cruises plans to offer a “ Grand Village of the Natchez Indians, Emerald Mound and Fort Rosalie ” shore excursion; that’s just one of many shore excursions it will offer for Natchez.
Over three or so hours, this shore trip will provide an enticing look at the history and culture of the Natchez people. The first stop will be along the Natchez Trace.
Cruisers will visit Emerald Mound , North America’s second largest temple mound, likely a political and ceremonial center.
Afterward, Viking’s guests will visit the Grand Village of the Natchez Indians (see one of the site’s huts in the photo above). They’ll view a special presentation, followed by a guided museum tour. Cruisers can expect archaeological insight and exhibits.
The tour then concludes at Fort Rosalie ( see next section ). In this area, cruisers will learn about the dispersal of the Natchez people from their ancestral homeland.
3. Top Attractions: Fort Rosalie Site & Lovely Rosalie
In 1716, France established Natchez as a settlement. From Natchez Under the Hill, visitors can either walk up/climb or take a shuttle/motorcoach to reach the Fort Rosalie site .
While nothing really remains of the French-era fort, the U.S. National Park Service maintains the site. As a result, you’ll find a riverside path, signage with historic information, parkland and picnic tables.
It’s a great starting point for a hike with stellar Mississippi River views.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Rosalie is nestled atop the bluffs in Natchez, MS. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Rosalie75072-1.jpg)
Rosalie, Gorgeous Lady on the Bluff
Not far away is Rosalie, an elegant historic mansion close to the bluffs ( see photo above ). Built in 1823 for Peter Little , a wealthy cotton broker, the structure will “wow” visitors. Among its architectural features is a gorgeous, four-column Tuscan portico.
On July 13, 1863, during the U.S. Civil War, General Ulysses Grant came to town. He took possession of Rosalie for his Union Army headquarters. The following month, General Walter Gresham took over from Grant in Natchez.
Today’s visitors can thank Gresham. Why? The general arranged for many of the owner’s furnishings to be stored in the attic. Also, he assigned guards to protect them.
Thus, travelers taking a tour will see many original furnishings and decorative items. The preserved Rosalie plantation mansion is lovingly maintained by the Mississippi State Society, Daughters of the American Revolution . It’s open for guided tours by guides wearing period clothing.
4. Top Attractions: Natchez Visitor Reception Center
Looking again at Natchez’s eclectic historical timeline, first came the Natchez Indians, then the French. They were followed by the Spanish and British. In 1817, Mississippi became a U.S. state.
The southern U.S. cotton boom and sad slavery era of the 1800s followed. Then, in 1861, Mississippi seceded from the U.S. and joined the Confederate States of America . At war’s end, Mississippi once again became part of the United States.
Wow, that’s a lot of historical twists and turns!
To help put things in perspective, we’d recommend a quick stop at Natchez Visitor Reception Center (see photo below). Fortunately, this center is often a scheduled stop on those “on-off” motorcoach tours.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Natchez Visitor's Center. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/NatchezVisitorCenter75072.jpg)
We’d suggest going inside, checking out the exhibits, grabbing brochures and asking questions of staff. In addition, cruisers can purchase select historic home tickets at the center. River lines too, obviously, offer excursions that include historic home tours.
Natchez Pilgrimage Tours
Another spot to stop if you’re interested in tickets for historic homes is Natchez Pilgrimage Tours’ office at 211 Main Street. What’s special? During certain times of the year, Natchez offers “pilgrimages” — with ticket packages that include entry to two or three different historic homes or sites.
Now in its 90th year, the pilgrimages typically are in spring and fall. For example, this year’s Fall Pilgrimage is set for September 24 through October 21, 2022.
The next Spring Pilgrimage is March 11 to April 11, 2023. For more information, visit Natchez Pilgrimage Tours at the link provided above.
![natchez mississippi riverboat A group participating in a "pilgrimage" tour listen to a guide in period clothing at Hope Farm in the Natchez area. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/HopeFarm-Tour750.jpg)
Some historic Natchez homes/sites are open for touring year-round or much of the year. Others, though, are normally not open to the public, but do welcome visitors during the annual pilgrimages.
5. Top Attractions: Natchez in Historical Photographs
We love many attractions in Natchez, some we’ve visited repeatedly. Among our favorites? It’s Natchez in Historical Photographs .
Travelers will gaze at 500-plus historic photos and feel they’ve “stepped back” in time. All were taken by local, professional photographers between 1845 and 1910. These photos visually captured the essence of Natchez life “back in the day.”
![natchez mississippi riverboat Natchez in Historical Photos attraction. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/natchezinhistoricphotos72.jpg)
This amazing photo collection is on the second floor of Stratton Chapel. That’s behind the Natchez Presbyterian Church on Pearl Street. An elevator is available.
The photos reflect scenes of the young and old, rich and poor. They also showcase people of diverse ethnic backgrounds. For instance, you’ll see images of society belles, shopkeepers and workers in the field.
It’s also fun to look at the photos of young children decked out in their finest attire.
Gazing at this collection, you’ll also see a mix of city sites, magnificent homes and farm scenes. Of interest to river cruisers are the shots of Mississippi River steamboats laden with cotton bales.
Simply put, an hour here is a bit akin to entering a time warp. A $5 donation is requested for admission.
6. Top Attractions: Octagonal, Unfinished Longwood
When it comes to historic structures, Natchez has a diverse portfolio. Many are listed on the National Register of Historic Sites and open for visitors to tour. Some date from the French, Spanish or English Colonial periods.
While s ome other southern towns or cities (such as Vicksburg) suffered significant devastation during the Civil War, that didn’t happen in Natchez. I n 1862 after the fall of New Orleans, Natchez surrendered to the Union Army.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Longwood, Natchez, MS. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/060-3-5998_jpeg-medium72.jpg)
One of the “must see” sites in Natchez — included in many cruise line tours — is the humongous, unfinished Longwood, a grand octagonal villa.
Planned as a 30,000-square-foot mansion, Longwood was designed by a Philadelphia architect for Haller and Julia Nutt. The couple were members of Natchez’s “planter elite” society.
Challenging Timing
However, the couple’s timing in building a new home wasn’t good. Construction began in 1860. But rising Civil War political tensions in 1861 halted the work. So, beyond the first level (mostly completed), the rest of the structure above is unfinished.
Adding insult to the family’s situation, local residents began calling the unfinished mansion “Nutt’s Folly.” However, the Nutt family lived on that first floor until the 20th century.
Also, we must say that Longwood’s exterior looks impressive. On guided tours of the home’s interior, visitors will first see that lower level, which has a few lovely rooms to view.
But when the guide leads the tour group upstairs, the tour gets really interesting. On that second level and above, all that visitors will see are bare walls, exposed beams and wooden structural elements ( see photo below ).
![natchez mississippi riverboat A view of the upstairs, unfinished section of Longwood in Natchez, MS. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/LongwoodUpstairsUnfinished72.jpg)
Think of a “snapshot in time.” That’s because this part of the mansion appears exactly as it did when construction stopped in the 1860s. Outside, though, there are magnificent porches, which are accessible from that unfinished interior space.
Today, the Pilgrimage Garden Club of Natchez cares for the large structure and its outbuildings. Cruise lines often offer shore excursions to Longwood.
For example, American Cruise Lines’ guests can book the line’s complimentary shore excursion, “ Historic Longwood Exploration .” It’s just one of many excursions that ACL offers for Natchez port calls on multiple itineraries.
7. Top Attractions: The William Johnson House
Natchez has done much to preserve its rich African-American and Creole heritage. Did you know that many “free blacks” worked as skilled tradesmen during the French and Spanish periods? Yes, that’s true, and it happened long before the British arrived.
One historic, downtown Natchez site with fascinating history is the William Johnson House, operated by the U.S. National Park Service. Admission is free.
As a free man of color prior to the Civil War, William Johnson (1809-1851) bought this home and lived here with his family. While Johnson had started life as a slave, he was freed at age 11.
The Barber of Natchez
Known as the “The Barber of Natchez,” Johnson owned a local barber shop. In addition, he purchased other structures and 2,000 acres of land outside Natchez.
Well-respected locally, Johnson also was a banker of sorts — loaning money to others.
Interesting tidbit? Visitors are often surprised to learn that this free man of color also owned slaves. Here’s a link to the NPS site if you’d like to read more.
![natchez mississippi riverboat William Johnson House in Natchez, MS. Photo by U.S. National Park Service](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/William-Johnson-House-Inside7272.jpg)
Exhibits and Recreated Living Quarters
Heading into the William Johnson House, you’ll first enter the downstairs exhibit space (see photo above). There’s also a bookstore here. Upstairs, the U.S. National Park Service has done a nice job of recreating the Johnsons’ furnished living quarters.
Park service rangers will tell visitors about about Johnson’s life story and the home’s history. Fortunately, Johnson kept a diary.
He wrote faithfully in that diary between 1835 and 1851. He talked about everyday life in Natchez — everything from a search for a lost cow to a local visit by former President Andrew Jackson.
8. Top Attractions: Museum of African-American History/Culture
We’d also pop into the Natchez Museum of African-American Culture and History . It’s located downtown inside the 1905-era, former U.S. Post Office building on Main Street.
![natchez mississippi riverboat Natchez Museum of African-American History. Photo courtesy of Visit Natchez.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/africanamericanhistorymuseum72.jpg)
As a National Literary Landmark, the museum’s exhibit hall is dedicated to Richard Wright , author and Natchez native. With many simple, interesting displays, the museum is home to African-American memorabilia, photographs, books and artifacts.
Here too cruisers can learn about Forks of the Road just outside the city. No building remains, but this notorious site was once the site of the South’s second largest slave market.
Recently, the U.S. National Park Service , which maintains the small, grassy site, installed free-standing exhibits and wayside panels at Forks of the Road. They explain what happened here regarding the domestic slave trade era.
Melrose and Plantation Life
To learn about plantation slave life in the 1800s, one good option is Melrose , a Natchez historic mansion. What’s unique is that, unlike many other mansion sites, this one has intact slave cabins.
Melrose was constructed around 1845 for John McMurran , a Pennsylvania native and Natchez attorney. Today, it’s operated by the U.S. National Park Service.
NPS suggests a 2.5-hour visit to get the “full picture” at Melrose. That includes a guided mansion tour plus a self-guided tour of a slave cabin — allowing time to read the exhibits in the cabin.
9. Top Attractions: The Towers
![natchez mississippi riverboat The Towers in Natchez, MS, is an antebellum home which has been lovingly restored.. Photo by Susan J. Young.](https://blog.pavlus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/towers-cropped72-scaled.jpg)
Another one-of-a-kind, historic home is The Towers, built over several centuries. Huge pre-Civil War Oak trees surround the mansion.
For river cruisers, it’s interesting to know that many of the mansion’s structural elements show signs of peg construction and barge-board elements. That type of construction was found in historic river vessels that transported furs from Natchez.
The Towers has evolved in its look over the years. In 1826, a second Neo-Classical construction phase added a colonnade of square columns. For instance, you’ll see some of those still visible on the porches.
In an 1858-era update, The Towers received an Italian villa-like, Renaissance Revival façade; that also created a pair of third-story tower rooms. However, a 1920’s storm sizably damaged those upper tower rooms, which were then removed.
Recently, owners Ginger and James Hyland have restored and rebuilt those two towers.

River cruisers often visit The Towers for tours (and sometimes lunch). We’ve been privileged to enjoy two tours that the affable Ginger has conducted.
She’s an owner who takes enormous pride in the mansion and every little detail of its interior furnishings and decorative items.
Collections Galore
Tour participants will see antique furniture, antique laces at every window and amazing collections of items. For example, one wall is totally filled with small “hanging” beaded purses ( see photo at right ).
Aviation buffs should head for the first floor’s rear door. Here they’ll find a display area that’s a tribute to Ginger’s late father, L. A. (Buzz) Hyland.
His claim to fame? He was among the men credited with inventing radar.
That feat impressed Howard Hughes, who hired Hyland to run Hughes Aircraft Company. Hyland retired as that company’s chairman of the board in 1983.
Ginger honors her father with a display that includes much aviation and aerospace memorabilia. If you go, look for the award that Hyland received from NASA.
Diverse Tours
The Towers offers many types of tours such as “Decorative Arts Tours” or “Jeweled Christmas Tours.” All showcase the home and its spectacular décor and collections. You’ll find Easter and Passover tours too.
For guests cruising on American Queen Voyages, one premium shore excursion ($79 per person) is the “ Home Hosted Visit with Ginger and James .”
Cruisers will arrive at The Towers, where the owners will greet them and guide them around. That’s followed by a sampling of southern comfort foods on the mansion’s sunny, enclosed back gallery.

Hi Linda. It’s Rosalie, mentioned in that section of the story… Sorry but I’m not familiar (as a writer/editor) with the Red River trips. I’d suggest asking your travel advisor or, if you don’t have one, Pavlus (see Important Note from Pavlus for contact info). Thanks for your note.

EDITOR’S NOTE TO READERS: Be sure to read Part 2 of this Natchez blog series, where Frogmore in Louisiana is mentioned as one shore excursion option beyond the City of Natchez itself; in that piece, we talk briefly about Frogmore and provide the website link to their site. That said, here’s additional information we kindly received from Lynette at Frogmore:
“Nineteen historical buildings dating from 1790’s to 1900 are a restored tribute to Frogmore Cotton Plantation & Gins, a modern 1,800-acre working cotton estate with a computerized farm and gin.
As you arrive at the computerized cotton gin, the owner will meet you and escort you through the gin and cotton farm operations. Participate in picking cotton and removing the seeds and tour a rare, steam engine gin listed on the National Register of Historic Properties.
Be seated in the hand-hewn log cabin and listen to narration and the vocalist’s songs highlighting the history of southern plantations, including the Constitution, Emancipation Proclamation, and accurate statistics of the enslaved and planter families.
After an enlightening overview of the historical Frogmore owners, explore the cotton fields and authentic cabins to learn the origin of southern cuisine, the day-to-day operations and how their labor force evolved into sharecropping, a way of life for 100 years. Enjoy a complimentary beverage as you browse an original plantation store.”
Lynette, I have posted some of this within our Part 2 blog about Natchez. That’s where we talk about activities “across the river.” While we had already mentioned Frogmore there, I did add in some of these gleanings to give readers a bit more detail. Thanks for writing. We appreciate your comments.
